Seems to just mentally slip sometimes and then couple that with that fielding error and you get a really bad inning.

Off the top of my head

-3 of the top 5 (?) averages in the AL with Altuve, Springer, and Marwin
-Bregman on an absolute tear for almost 2 weeks straight

Yes, the offense as a whole has been slumping. But it's a slump, not a new norm. The makeup of the offense (sans Correa) is still there.

If Marisnick were up I'd bunt...

At least the ump is consistent wth not calling the high strike

I'd have liked Andrus to go after Altuve there. Something to shake things up and light a fire

Andrus would have been 6 feet under if he stepped at Jose

I was mocked when I said 90 wins would be a challenge. We suck, really bad. We are playing farther to the left of the suck spectrum than we were to the right of the great spectrum earlier this year. This team is lost and has no leadership. If they had it they would not have gone into a post trade deadline funk. Bunch of front running mental midgets

At what point do we start looking at the standings? Lead over the Red Sox for AL home field is down to 6 games.

Dang marwin! Out of the stadium foul ball. Fantastic AB and a hit to go with it too.

If we win will you ban yourself for a month?
I'll give you a more fair deal: if we lose tonight but still win the series this weekend, I won't post for a month. Hopefully my absence is all they were missing and they get on a roll!

Got a little something going that inning at least. Need Morton to bounce back here

Actual baseball question warning, but should Beltran just give up batting right handed?

No. As sad as it sounds, he would bat worse against a lefty batting from the left. He can pick up the pitch a lot better from the right hand side

Was Hamels running his mouth to Fisher?!

I don't have the stats on hand it just seems like he's been an awful right handed batter this season so figured I'd ask

Blummer said he figured Hamels told Fisher that he was safe.

Fisher's look at him afterward makes me think that's not what he said

I'm not apart of the "sky is falling" group. But there have been multiple times these last few days where it looks like the team is just giving up on this season waiting for something to go their way. But that could just be the Houston sports fan in me assuming nothing ever good will last.

Drop the series? Good chance we get swept.

On the standings, I've been watching for a few days now. There is still a lot of baseball left. Watching this last week I'd stay say playoffs are still probable but unless they figure something out quick I could see them losing the AL lead.

It definitely looks like a team waiting on a good break, but maybe someone will cause one soon

If my Houston/Aggie fandom has taught me anything in 37 years it's that you should always enjoy the good times but be leary of impending disappointment.

This team is just pressing so hard. Trying and trying and trying to be the hero on every swing/throw/catch. None of these guys are ever relaxed during the game.

This team is unrecognizable right now compared to what we saw just a month ago...demeanor, execution, all of it.

Gotta hope the "on" switch gets found soon.
